A highly regarded national law firm is seeking a talented Corporate Solicitor to join its award-winning Corporate Team in Oxford. This is an exciting opportunity for an ambitious legal professional to advance their career with a firm known for delivering exceptional legal services across a wide range of industries.

About the Team
 The firm's Corporate Team, comprised of over 70 lawyers across 13 UK offices, is recognised for its expertise and excellence. The team advises a diverse client base, including entrepreneurs, SMEs, financial institutions, and FTSE 100 companies, on matters such as:

  • Mergers and acquisitions.
  • Fundraising and private equity.

The Oxford-based team combines top-tier national expertise and international reach with a strong Thames Valley presence. The team operates in a collaborative, supportive, and entrepreneurial environment, led by a nationally recognised individual ranked in Chambers & Partners 2024 and the Legal 500. They deliver high-value, complex deals while offering flexible working and modern, well-connected offices.

About the Role
 The successful candidate will work on a wide range of corporate matters, including mergers and acquisitions, shareholder agreements, private equity, and corporate restructurings. With a team-oriented approach, the firm encourages its lawyers to develop their skills and network to build lasting client relationships.

The role is open to candidates with 1+ PQE, though applications from individuals with varying levels of experience are welcome.

Key Responsibilities

  • Providing high-quality legal advice across a range of corporate matters.
  • Managing financial performance, including accurate time recording, billing, and meeting targets.
  • Identifying and driving business development opportunities to enhance client relationships.
  • Staying up-to-date with technical expertise and legal developments.
  • Contributing to the team's collaborative culture and embodying the firm's core values.

 The ideal candidate will demonstrate:

  • Relevant post-qualification experience in corporate law.
  • Strong commercial awareness and a client-focused approach.
  • The ability to manage a caseload with minimal supervision.
  • Excellent interpersonal skills for building and maintaining client relationships.
  • Proficiency in IT systems, including case management software and Microsoft Office.
  • A proactive attitude toward professional growth and development.

  • Gain exposure to high-profile transactions and a diverse client base.
  • Benefit from flexible working arrangements and excellent career development opportunities.
  • Work in a supportive, collaborative environment that prioritises work-life balance.
